Fire

The photographic work centres around the short-lived matter that are clouds. I selected about ten photos which one could define as plastics, which the imperceptible seems to be within reach and almost tactile. These photos tempt to speak about states, they reflect feelings, internal landscapes. The plasma is a part of the blood, the blood make the heart beats, and the heart is the home of the feelings.These clouds sometimes become creatures, sometimes short of tides, giants, animals, intentions, gestures, feelings …They produce for us paintings.It is the will of this work, that to create a bridge between the photography which tends to capture the reality and the work of the imagination which tends, him, to take us away from it.

Born in France in 1976, nathalie Berthod is living in Geneva, Switzerland from many years.She begun an artist activity by playing on stage as a juggler and a comedian. She create several shows with her compagny CNPK and played with the Gandini’s juggling.Recently she turned toward the art of photography. She likes to transform pictures to make them like paintings. She works on the border between dream and reality, in an intermediate zone which gives way to the imagination and to the feelings.Plasma is about matter and feelings. What you can see, like clouds, but you can’t touch even if it seems so tactile to yours eyes…It’s the same thing with our internal landscape, emotions, they are here, inside of us, they are real, but we can’t get them.
